Shocking… my grand daughter just attended one of these “imagine” camps. I forwarded this link to her mom.

In reply to Benjamin Pretorius. Dear Benjamin Thank you so much for your comment, it made me realise more how important DTW is. I will be back full time within next 2 weeks. For the time being I have a few IT issues to deal with that have accumulated in my absence.

In reply to Benjamin Pretorius. Hi Benjamin. You and are in the same boat. My wife is in constant pain but never complains. Indeed his grace is sufficient.

Hi Tom. Sorry to hear of Deborah’s trials and your own.
Last year was one of the most difficult of my life. Some (now ex) friends who are zealous for WOF doctrine informed me that my difficulties are the judgment of God for leaving the charismatic movement and forsaking the teaching on ‘faith’ which I once believed! Most edifying! Won’t go into further details. We can be thankful for God’s sustaining grace and the joy of being taken out of the deception which is rampant in the professing church. Someone on a forum website I post on recently said “I think the most dangerous places to be at present are in the womb and in the church”(!) My best, Mike

In reply to RJ.

Hi RJ. I phoned Deborah yesterday. She’s had a rough time but is coping, by the grace of God. I too had my ups and downs. Getting older with all the aches and pains, and fatigue are good friends. I tire very easily but am also coping, by the grace of God.

And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. (2 Corinthians 12:9).

Keep your eye fixed on Jesus Christ.

Hi Tom, was wondering where you & Deborah were! Missed you while you were on a sabbatical! Or maybe I’m wrong? But I hadn’t noticed any new postings since last fall.

SIGH… can the “church” get any worse in pushing us over a cliff than with all their weird, way out teachings? (which are anything but Biblical!!) And boy, Alice Bailey was “something else” wasn’t she? Founded the “Lucifer Publishing Company”!! OH MY!! :nope:

BTW, was also thinking the “fingertip touching” sign [you mention taught by Nicol] is masonic as well..? Or is that only when the thumbs are joined thus forming the triangle? (EX: Angela Merkel)

Yet another sign of false teaching (getting pretty popular here in the middle of the U.S.) is teaching/preaching on Hebrews 11, the “faith chapter” and then after the reading of this Scripture, which explains how people chose to live in dens & caves & even be sawn in half for their faith, for looking forward to something better (heaven!) — “some how” that’s INTERPRETTED to tell the congregation “now go out & live EXEMPLARY, exhilarting, exciting lives!!” In other words, (think: Rick Warren) “do something big & important with your life!!”
heh, I don’t “read that into” Hebrews 11 myself. Goodness, why can’t people understand the Bible says what it means and means what it says without trying to go out on a limb & “teach” something it DOES NOT mean!

False teachers, false preachers, false prophets every where we look! Sure is sad. Yet we are filled with hope in knowing heaven’s trumpet will soon sound & we will (not have to find or make our best life HERE!!) because we will be transported to where Jesus is…. to FOREVER be with Him, where righteousness dwells & abominations are not allowed in!! Amen (and MARANATHA!!) Thanks for the article! Let’s stay faithful to the Word!
